Ani Difranco – Angry Anymore Lyrics

growing up it was just me and my mom against the world and all my sympathies were with her when i was a little girl but now i’ve seen both my parents play out the hands they were dealt and as each year goes by i know more about how my father must have felt

i just want you to understand that i know what all the fighting was for and i just want you to understand that i’m not angry anymore i’m not angry anymore

she taught me how to wage a cold war with quiet charm but i just want to walk through my life unarmed to accept and just get by like my father learned to do but without all the acceptance and getting by that got my father through

night falls like people into love we generate our own light to compensate for the lack of light from above every time we fight a cold wind blows our way

but we learn like the trees how to bend how to sway and say

i, i think i understand what all this fighting is for and baby, i just want you to understand that i’m not angry anymore no, i’m not angry anymore
